Hi - after reading and following the blog I got it - it is peculiar how it works but once the pattern is followed repetitively it goes along well. Thanks again.
Originally the blog and video were started as a reference to help us remember when we had to braid but then we decided to make them a little more detailed and make them public. I am glad they were useful to you as well.
Found your videos, thank you for taking time to teach your skills. Are you using kangaroo lace? Is there another option to kangaroo lace, for practice purposes? Now I need to find your blog.
We use a lot of calf lace for doing this decorative braiding which you can find at www.leathersmithdesigns.com/leather-lace-lacing-needles/ . We also sometimes use kangaroo lace but I can't remember which lace we used in the video as they both work equally as well. We don't sell kangaroo lace. Here is the link to our blog for doing this braiding www.leathersmithdesigns.com/blogs/braiding-leather-tutorial-how-to-braid-leather-with-three-laces/ . Thank you for your interest in our leather tutorial.
Hi thanks for posting. I'm stuck on what to do with the far right braid and where it fits into the pattern. I can get to 2:22 part of the video but at the Step 2 lacing part where you have a bit of the pattern started I am confused with the lace on the far right. Where does it go at the beginning - in the third or fourth hole? I realize that every second hole is laced and then go back one hole. Update - I found your blog post on this and will follow the instructions there. Thanks in advance.
We cut 3 strands of leather lace. Each strand should be 4 to 4 ½ times the length of the final leather braid. Here is some more info on the three strand braiding www.leathersmithdesigns.com/blogs/braiding-leather-tutorial-how-to-braid-leather-with-three-laces/ Glad you enjoyed our leather braiding video.
Sorry I just came across your comment. You may see the more detailed info you need on our blog about this brading method at www.leathersmithdesigns.com/blogs/braiding-leather-tutorial-how-to-braid-leather-with-three-laces/
The holes for the lacing done in this video are punched at 1/2 inch centers. However we have made tighter looking braids on wristbands which are punched with 1/4 inch centers but they take a lot longer to lace when the holes are so close.
Oh MAN ... COME ON! You didn't think to show the first step directly after starting ??? Iv started the braid & now can't finish it ... Also your hands are in the way of the step you've skipped to ... SO ANNOYED
Perhaps the leather braiding diagrams in this tutorial may be helpful to you since there are no hands blocking anything: leathersmithdesigns.com/blogs/braiding-leather-tutorial-how-to-braid-leather-with-three-laces/

I was wondering if you eventually succeeded with the braid after reading the blog?
Thank you for posting this video.
May I know how do you measure the leather you needed for a project?

@@LeathersmithDesigns thanks mate
How far apart are the holes punched?
The holes for the lacing done in this video are punched at 1/2 inch centers. However we have made tighter looking braids on wristbands which are punched with 1/4 inch centers but they take a lot longer to lace when the holes are so close.
Where are those lace available and what is the width of the lace?
